Case Study: B/E Aerospace achieves stronger talent development and retention with SAP SuccessFactors

Developing and Retaining High-Potential Talent with SAP SuccessFactors Solutions

B/E Aerospace, a global aircraft‑interior manufacturer with about 9,600 employees and nearly 30 acquisitions, faced fragmented HR data and the challenge of developing and retaining high‑potential talent during a period of aggressive growth. To consolidate employee information, clarify career paths, and measure performance across three continents, B/E Aerospace selected the SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite (including Employee Central, Recruiting, Onboarding, Learning, Performance & Goals, and Succession & Development).

SAP SuccessFactors deployed the full HCM suite within 24 months, replacing dozens of spreadsheets with real‑time analytics and enabling focused development and leadership programs. The solution helped B/E Aerospace increase internal fills of open requisitions from 5% to 28%, promote 70% of leadership‑program participants to director roles, and advance 35% of management‑track participants into their first management positions, improving retention and strategic talent mobility.
